I did not know about the Pal globulars... I take it there are but a
few... They are not easy to record and were first thought to be dwarf
ellipticals. I suppose the first plates did not resolve the stars
well.... This image is only 60 min. and it is noisy, but the cluster
stars show behind all the foreground stars.

12.5" RCOS RC at 114"
ST8E/AO7
60 min. in 2 sub-exposures
